An Old Head 4,812 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I think my favourite word would have to be Penguin. For some reason, it's really satisfying to speak aloud. Penguin penguin penguin... plus, penguins are great animals in of themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephala 2,631 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Mine, when I was younger, was "brouhaha". Still pretty awesome. I remember reading it in some old novel of my mothers when I was four or five and I wouldn't stop saying it. Now? I have a few, but they're all in other languages. It English, maybe "stoichiometry".

Leeroy Wingkins 27 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 My favorite word...Waffle. Everyone loves waffles and say it. Waffle, it's just so fun! Also say it repeatedly really fast! Clearly it's the best word. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Urdnot 2,680 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) My favorite word is esoteric. For a variety of reasons. 1. I actually didn't know the word. I've always had a large vocabulary, and never learned any new words at school. That makes words that I don't know all the more interesting to me. 2. Esoteric jokes are best jokes. 3. Not many people know what esoteric means, therefore, the word esoteric is in fact... Esoteric! Edited January 31, 2013 by UrdiePie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutemutt 772 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I guess the requiem would be my favorite. I just like the way it sounds and the musical aspect of the word. Second favorite word would definitely be shenanigans because I like to call them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmarston1 5,923 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Well due to my love of the Digimon anime my favorite word is prodigious.

MelancholicMemory 2,022 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 My favorite word is lexicographer. I just think it sounds cool. And, yes, my favorite word is the word for people who study words. It's wordception. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betez 1,732 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 My second favorite word is obese. I don't know why. Being overweight isn't funny or anything, but for whatever reason the word is really fun to say. It just has a nice sound to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro*Derpy 2,946 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 My favorite word would be bamboozled. Both the meaning and the sound it makes is amusing. My secound favorite would be sternocleidomastoid. It is just so obscured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HallowsEve 52 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 My favorite word would have to be Audacity. I learned it a few years ago in my drama class doing a monologue. I fell in love with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowl 128 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) I've always been a fan of the word arcane. Everyone always assumes that its can only refer to D&D and such, but it has legitimate every day uses. Why just today I had to look up some arcane FORTRAN code from the 80s. Luckily my friend managed to obtain a copy of it. Another great word is botched. As in, wow you really botched that experiment, now we need to go find the old FORTRAN code that might be able to salvage some of this data.

Tacutiemark 27 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Flabbergasted- astonished, exasperated. It's much better thabn the use of "pissed" because it's longer and is fun to say. Falllabbbbburrrgasted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dsanders 5,741 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Being an amateur writer who really loves the English vocabulary and as well as poetry, it is very difficult for me to come down to choosing one amazing word that I favor the most. But If I had to choose just one, I suppose I would go with: Ethereal. It's an adjective and it can be used to describe something that is "delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world." It can also be used to describe something divine, spiritual, and heavenly. I love how poetic and beautiful it sounds when used in the right context. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotalNeon 72 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 "Superfluous" is my favourite word I'm not really sure why, I just love using it. It's fun to say Soo-per-floo-uhs! Somepony said "ominous" too, that's a pretty nice word as well 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 6,332 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Reverie It's so pretty, and it has a great meaning. It means "A state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts." Definitely one of my favorites. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techno915 405 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 probably aibohphobia. it is the fear of palindromes and is itself a palindrome. that's pretty much the only reason i like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlsDeleteAccount 157 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 My favourite word? Well... 'Sah'. It's the written pronunciation of the word 'sir' in northern English accent. I use it a lot when talking to people. eg: "Good day, sah!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomadic 210 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 My favourite word has to be Haberdashery it's always fun word for me to say for some reason. Another word I really like is Toque, which is a Canadian term for what everyone else calls a beanie. I always found it hilarious when I lived down in the US for a brief duration, and I asked for a friend to pass me my toque. I swear he thought I was crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radost 76 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 my favorite English word is swiftly, i just like the way to rolls off the tongue. my second favorite has to be evil, because backwards it is live, i just think its a cool word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
